Henry Poole & Co, the founder of Savile Row, was proud to be awarded The Queen’s Award for Enterprise on Her Majesty’s birthday in April 2012. This award is Britain’s highest accolade for business and is granted to Henry Poole & Co by the Queen, on the advice of the Prime Minister, for excellence in international trade.

Poole is honoured to receive The Queen’s Award in the year of Her Majesty’s Diamond Jubilee. The firm’s first British Royal Warrant was granted by Queen Victoria in 1869; the only reigning monarch before Queen Elizabeth II to celebrate 60 years on the throne. It is a tribute to the enduring tradition of British bespoke tailoring that Henry Poole & Co served both monarchs in their Diamond Jubilee year.
